About this property

Dolce Vita - Modern home within walking distance to Lake Michigan!

Welcome to Dolce Vita
​​​​​​​
If you seek inspiration, privacy, and the best of Pure Michigan, you will find it at Dolce Vita. This whimsical, light-flooded retreat is a delight to the senses! Large picture windows throughout the house offer panoramic views of the deeps woods that are home to deer and the stunning Pileated Woodpeckers. This charming year-round cottage is tucked beneath the canopy of 2 wooded acres, is a short beautiful walk to private beach access, and offers multiple spaces both indoors and out for entertaining and relaxing.

INSIDE THE HOME
The main level has two large gathering spaces - one off the kitchen with vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and sliding doors to the outdoor lounge and fire pit; the other is a game/media room equipped with comfortable couches and 2-day beds for indoor lounging. Just off the dining room is the second outdoor deck. Enjoy cocktails and meals to the soundtrack of bullfrogs, birdsong, and creaking tree trunks bending to the winds of the lake. The outdoor dining area is complete with lounge seating, a gas grill, and a table for 10.

Beautiful getaway in the forest
We had a fun and relaxing stay. The home is beautifully decorated and well equipped with all the comforts of home! We enjoyed "forest bathing" on both porches and loved the short walk to the beach.

Our time at Dolce
Our overall experience was fabulous! I did not realize we would be within walking distance to the waterfront, so that was delightful to discover. Not all of the appliances worked which was a bummer- my husband was so looking forward to the fancy espresso machine but there was a sign indicating it wasn’t to be used. Also, the oven door appeared broken so we didn’t use that either. Aside from those very minor things, the house was stunning, location truly beautiful, and many fun things to do in the area. Not only would I recommend it, we look forward to to returning!
